Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The energy involved in the given nuclear reaction has to be calculated.
Concept introduction: In the radioactive decay process the unstable isotopes loses their energy by emitting radiation in order to attain stable species. It is converted in to stable isotopes by emitting positron
Binding energy: It is defined as the energy needed by an atom or molecule to completely loss one electron from it. The binding energy of an atom is calculated as,
(b)
Interpretation:
The wave length for Gamma rays emitted in the given reaction has to be calculated.
Concept introduction:
In the radioactive decay process the unstable isotopes loses their energy by emitting radiation in order to attain stable species. It is converted in to stable isotopes by emitting positron
Isotopes: The two elements with same atomic number but with different mass number are considered as isotopes of each other.
Binding energy: It is defined as the energy needed by an atom or molecule to completely loss one electron from it. The binding energy of an atom is calculated as,
The equation for energy of photon is given by
